Carmen, by Georges Bizet Opera in four acts with music by Georges Bizet (1838-1875) and French libretto by Ludovic Halévy (1834-1908) and Henri Meilhac (1831-1897), based on the novel Carmen by Prosper Mérimée (1803 -1870). Approximate duration: 2 h 45 min Description: The story narrates the unfortunate romance between Carmen and Don José. She is a gypsy, a cigarette maker, a smuggler, a rebel, free and irreverent; he was military, reserved, content, devoted to his mother and to the military order. The story moves from seduction to conflict and the predictable fatal outcome between two incompatible lives. Brief Description: The story tells of the unfortunate romance between Carmen and Don José.
